So James should have sent the patch with his S-o-b under it.

You cannot add S-o-b for somebody else to any patches.  You can only
add your S-o-b to somebody else's patch if you have made any changes
on top of the original.

In case you want to make a record of somebody else's contribution to
your patch, you can use the Co-developed-by tag.

Thanks!
